above average old-school WWII epic

Rating: Null/10 (15 February 1999)

For all the star power money could buy, you get a good value if you see "The Longest Day". As far as old-fashioned Hollywood epics go, it's not bad--
One thing, though, the Omaha Beach landing scene aged about sixty years the very day "Saving Private Ryan" was released. Guess that's the price of progress.
